Myra's POV 💎

"We should leave, now."
I said to my friends, walking past them as fast as I could.

"Hey hey, what happened?"
Elena asked and I didn't respond.

...........
..........
.........

We reached home and I took my shower,
I went straight to the kitchen, pouring myself a drink.

I walk to the living room, slumping on the couch, sipping my drink.
Sophie is already asleep in the room.

Now I'm seated with Elena giving me a questioning look.

"Bitch,you gotta start talking."
She said giving me one of those her dead serious looks.
And I just sigh.

"Is it that dumbfuck again?"
She asked and I know she's talking about Dante.

"No, it's nothing. I'm just tired."
I said
I thought I could pull the wool over her eyes but my badass bestie saw right through my lies She knows me too well to be fooled by my smooth talking and I couldn t help but admire her no-nonsense attitude

"Talk to me Myra."
She said, giving me a cold stern look, making me kinda scared.
God this girl is something else.
Her temper is not good.

"He'd warned me not to wear revealing dresses again and he spank me,"
I said, taking a long drag of my drink.

"Are you some kid?"
She asked, making a fist of her hand and hitting it on the table close to her making me flinch.

Oh, poor table

"He fucking hit your goddamn ass and you just sit there and take it.
Like a fucking submissive, girl."
She scolded me and she comes to sit near me, holding my hands.
I just stare at her, blankly.
I don't even know what is going on my mind right now.

"Look, he's not your fucking Dad , okay.
He's got no right to tell you what, and what not to wear."

"I hate seeing you hurt. You are just like a sister to me.
Tell me,is he forcing you to do anything? huh?"

"He's just scary.
He's fucking scary.
He's in my goddamn head, his cold gaze,his threats,he is a fucking Mafia. He always wants to kill me.
And his mother,I don't know why I feel obliged to want to help.
Or I'm just selfless or a fucking naive, stupid, fucking, idiotic-"

"Hush..
Calm down."

"I'm so stupid,I'm letting him do whatever he wants with me. He hurts and then insults me."

"Today , history wanted repeat itself.
I was about to b....b...be
But he came in at the right time ,he killed the man before my eyes.
The sight is so terrifying,..."
I said,my voice cracking,the murder incident didn't want to leave my head.
It's been replaying everytime I close my eyes.

The physical pain may have healed but the emotional wounds of being raped still cut deep. The memories of that night still haunt me invading my mind and suffocating me with a sense of powerlessness. The aftermath of the assault has left me feeling broken and shattered struggling to find a sense of normalcy once again.
